Now that is good news. Turns out that xanthohumol, a compound present in that bubbly quaff, acts much the same as drugs that are commonly used to treat prostate cancer. Seems like an easy choice: chemo or Guiness?

I'll drink to that!

[NB: We actually reported on a similar study a few years ago. At that time, the problem was that "Agent X" was present "in such small amounts that a person would have to drink more than 17 beers to benefit." Perhaps the Scottish researchers were more successful than those in Oregon]
